It’s widely agreed that girls generally start talking earlier than boys, and use more complex vocabulary. When they start school, most girls have 【C1】______ better verbal skills than boys—on average, they are a month or two ahead. As they progress through primary school, girls continue to  【C2】______ boys when it comes to verbal skills. By the time children leave primary school, girls are about a year ahead with reading and the gap is even bigger for writing. However, it should be noted that boys are 【C3】______ level with girls when it comes to attainment in maths at primary school.
The gap in attainment at the age of 16 has led some teachers to believe that 【C4】______ lessons in core subject are the way forward when it comes to 【C5】______ male students and improving boys’ grades. They argue that boys, for instance, feel less disheartened in subjects like  【C6】______ when there are no female students in the classroom to compete with. Others believe that girls and boys thrive best when the 【C7】______ sex is taken out of the equation completely— and advocate a single-sex environment, especially at 【C8】______ school level.
Some schools believe that a male 【C9】______ —whether it is a male teacher or more involvement from dad at home—is a key factor in impelling boys and improving their grades. Others advocate a more "boy-friendly" environment at school, whether it’s 【C10】______ more books in the library that appeal to boys or trying out different teaching styles in lessons to engage boys in learning.

选项

答案 M

解析空格处应填入形容词修饰名词lessons。根据下一句：男孩在没有女生与其竞争的时候会没那么沮丧，可知此处指单一性别课程的好处，即老师们相信在核心科目(in core subject)采用针对单一性别授课的课程，有利于激发男生的学习动力，提高他们的成绩。故选M项single-sex“单一性别的”。此处并未提及男女合校的优势，排除coeducational“男女合校的”。
